Comcast Corp., the largest U.S. cable provider, said its new X2 TV guide will be available to customers later this year, as it seeks to offer a more interactive service similar to online video platforms.
The guide is cloud-based and builds on the current X1 interface, which the Philadelphia-based company introduced last year. The interface segments content into new categories including live listings, kids, movies, sports and recommended programming to help users find the shows they want, Chief Executive Officer Brian Roberts said today at the National Cable & Telecommunications Association Cable Show in Washington.
